Banning Pictures of Skinny Women in Skimpy Clothing

For John, BLUF:  Is this body shaming or is it Islam?  Nothing to see here; just move along.

The new mayor of London, England, His Honor Sadiq Khan, is calling for cleaning up the advertising on London Subways, the Underground.

Here is the headline:

London's new Muslim mayor takes aim at sexy subway ads

Here is the lede:

The newly elected mayor of London's call for a ban on public ads that show scantily clad women has critics complaining the move has more to do with his Muslim roots than his concerns about "body-shaming."

Which may be why he has abandoned his pledge to hold subway fares steady.  Ad revenues are down.
